Route 73 ramp reopened in Maple Shade

(Trenton) - The New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT) has reopened the Route 73 southbound ramp to Route 41 southbound this afternoon in Maple Shade.

The ramp had been closed to traffic for reconstruction work since June 13.

Construction continues to progress on NJDOT’s $18 million state-funded project to increase safety and reduce congestion throughout along Route 73 in Maple Shade and Moorestown. The work is anticipated for completion in spring 2012.

The CR 537/Main Street Bridge over Route 73 remains closed until August 2011.
